Open-source metronome (Android)

After testing a lot of them, I landed on this one:
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.moekadu.metronome/

Perhaps not the most advanced metronome, but it's open-source and have all the things I need.

It's a must have tool for any drummer (imo), even if you don't use one to practise, having a metronome behind the kit can save many lengthy arguments ;-)
I don't use it live that much, but for songs that require sync with an echo or similar situations I use it for count in.

I also tested a few commercial ones, at best they had annoying popups, and some didn't even keep the beat.

Drummers know how to use a metronome? /s

Love,

I was looking for metronomes lately and really liked "Tack": https://github.com/patzly/tack-android

Looks great, do you use it with a smartwatch?

No, I don't have that, I just use it on my phone and it works great! Looks very clean with lots of features.
